I think this game should be immersive, and glitches like that ruin the immersion if you use them. For me anyway, I'm not going to tell you how to play.

:
What we call “Skyrim” is actually the point equidistant from

1. the product itself, and
2. your sentient mind.
I remember discovering the money glitch in the first Fable. Actually pretty useful, since everything good was orders of magnitude more expensive than could ever bee afforded without the wholesale slaughter of entire villages and several in-game weeks. But the immersion was never great anyway. Point is: never stopped using it, even when I wanted to try being a proper trader.

Other than selling vendor-trash loot, my main source of income in Skyrim is selling leather armour made from animals that I hunted myself. I love that I can be a big badass man of the wilds, then come back to civilisation and craft real products with the materials I acquire. Mining, too. I already make all my own gear from raw materials I summon from the very land itself. In this game I can be self-sufficient! There is little that I have to buy, and that is usually just civilisation. I could sleep rough in cleared bandit camps and deserted shacks if I wanted.

I can cook now, too. Cooking, skilled trade, can defend my home from dragons. I must be the most desirable lizardman in all of Skyrim.
